Replacing ForAll command in Power Apps

Posted on by CU14081108-3

I have a gallery in Power Apps where I would like to update all the items in the gallery using Power Automate instead of a ForAll command.

All the items are to have the same value in a specific column. Thats all... ;-)

I have tried with this flow...

And this command to call the flow...

UpdatePOlineitems.Run(Gallery2.AllItems;JSONFormat.Compact)

But I cannot get it to work... Help please...

After Compose action, make a Parse JSON action - if you're input data is passed correctly and it's array, then in your flow loop body from Parse JSON action will work okay

Hi @CU14081108-3

Try this code:

UpdatePOlineitems.Run( JSON(Gallery2.AllItems; JSONFormat.IgnoreUnsupportedTypes) )

Hope this helps!

Now, the call from Power Apps is working correctly.

But the Parse JSON is not...

Could you please describe exactly how I should use this function?

(remember that the gallery sent from Power Apps contains eg. 7 rows - and it is only these 7 rows that needs to be updated - and it is only one of the columns that needs to be updated... The rest should remain unchanged)

I am new to this Power Automate, so I might have misunderstood some of the functions, so if any data needs to be changed - please guide me... ;-)

Ok... so you should do this:

First you have your input from app:

Now you can use Parse JSON on this:

Still your output should be same, but now you can work on text property.

So then you can use once again Compose action and at input field you can use Expression:

json(body('Parse_JSON')?['text'])

That will change your text into JSON that you can use in your Apply to each.

Of course if you want to update only SPECIFIC columns you need to filter your array before Loop or make condition inside.

I don't think you need ForAll or a Power Automate Flow to achieve that.

Patch(IndkobsordreDataljer, Gallery2.AllItems,{IndkoebsordreDetaljeStatus:"TEST"})

Should do the trick.

If you want to update the Items only if a condition is met, then add Filter clause like that:

Patch(IndkobsordreDataljer, Filter(Gallery2.AllItems, SpecificColumn = "SpecificValue"),{IndkoebsordreDetaljeStatus:"TEST"})
